China is set to impose a record fine on PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and may suspend some of its local operations due to its involvement in a major financial fraud case with China Evergrande Group. The Ministry of Finance is expected to announce the penalties soon, with a potential fine of at least 1 billion yuan. This move comes amidst heightened scrutiny on financial risks in China, with President Xi Jinping emphasizing the need for stronger financial oversight. PwC's Chinese arm, PricewaterhouseCoopers Zhong Tian LLP, was Evergrande's auditor during the period in question and has faced challenges in other jurisdictions as well.
